When I made the wooden Barrel, it took 32 staves and they had to taper from top to bottom on both sides. So I had to have a RH and LH jig. I made the standard one that guided along the table saw fence, that cut left and another that cut right. They are pretty simple. The rip that holds a piece can be changed for any angle.

Don't piss off old people. The older we get the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent !
